Thanks for posting this question as I too am looking for a 700c rim that would handle a tire larger than 32mm wide. I currently have the wheelset that came with my bike, Shimano R 500s, and their rims only measure 15mm wide. The bike came with 32mm tires, but from what I've read, I shouldn't go larger on this type of rim.

I have a "city speed" Orbea Aneto so I assume that it should be able to handle a wider tire since its not your traditional road bike.

I would like to hear what other 700c rim options are available for tires >32mm wide.

Thank you.
